I tether a few times a month and I still don't manage to go over 2 - 3 GB (I have 5gb plan with T-Mobile). If folks are managing to use 5gb+ - then they should be throttled if they are part of a regular data plan.
HOWEVER, is watching Netflix streaming videos "abusing" the service? Because watching a few movies on your Verizon iPad2 and you are now an "abuser"...
I don't think there really is a solution yet. Other than try and use WiFi as much as possible when needing to do data intensive things like watching movies.
